I haven’t felt like posting in a good while.
I’m working again finally, but it’s hard physically. Taking on midnight to 8am with a 6am till 2pmish each weekend day is hard on the body. When we get moved, I’m never throwing newspapers again. That’s a promise both Steve and I are making.
Geoffrey has taken both his ACT and SAT now. He really wants to go to the University of Chicago or the University of Indiana Bloomington – it’s hard to get behind that when my kid won’t tie his shoes or learn to drive. I just say nothing and try to encourage him to take on the least amount of debt possible. He’s a good kid. I expect he’ll be fine where ever he goes to college.
Our new dog, Scotty has fit in like a charm. He’s a little clown and the perfect companion for Rory. Steve calls him Scotty Wotty and the little dog just dances!
Cox is buying out my pension and we plan to move to NC with the money we get. It will be small and simple but hopefully no payment and a bit of land. That will free Steve up to fix this house to sell, and in the end, maybe we’ll get a small rental out of the deal. We can hope 🙂
That’s about all that’s happening on a big scale and the small stuff is just that – small.
About Morning Knits
I believe in and practice positive living. I love YARN, cooking, music, bird watching, herbs, and gardening. I am passionate about YHWH the Elohim of all the earth. I believe it's our responsibility to tend that earth. I basically do my thing in a quiet, amused way. I believe in laughter, and the power of combined prayer. I am a true homebody.
I have 6 kids, all home-born and successfully breastfed. They are all grown. I'm the oldest of 9, daughter of a missionary mother who lives in Kenya, and I have a spoiled service dog and 2 rescued cats.
Right now, there is balance after yrs of unemployment. My disability was approved due to degenerative discs, fibromyalgia, and obesity. That last is hard to say. I believe we owe it to ourselves to protect our mental health. It's precious and the one thing we can control. I would rather not do my own housework and I talk too much. I bought a house in North Carolina which I ended up leaving for my husband to sell. I'm a two-time caregiver. My husband and I are separated due to stroke complications and personality difficulties.
I am in Texas now. The one place on earth I said I'd never go unless Yah moved me there and HERE I AM! G and I are sharing a small apartment and so far, things are going well.
